Cohort Flow and the Consequences of Population Ageing, An International Analysis and Review

Improve your lectures, research and policy analysis with a new reference work that will bring you value for many years — a source of detailed portraits of patterns among cohorts

If your teaching, research or policy analyses involve focusing on economic and demographic changes in society, some worthwhile benefits await you in a new Statistics Canada publication entitled, Cohort Flow and the Consequences of Population Ageing, An International Analysis and Review.Teachers will enrich lecture notes, reading assignments and research project development activities by having ready access to the collection of cohort-oriented charts, tables and discussions in this book. Researchers and policy analysts will have new perspectives to research or policy by having, on hand, a book that develops hypotheses concerning linkages among institutional, social, and demographic changes as evidenced through the analysis of differences among cohorts evolving through time.

Cohort Flow and the Consequences of Population Ageing, An International Analysis and Review emphasizes the idea that scholars should pay attention to the succession of potentially divergent cohorts as they pass through the older population when attempting to analyze the implications of population ageing. It challenges the time-honoured practice of first establishing a set of demographic scenarios, and second, asking what are the appropriate policy adjustments. As Professor Chris Phillipson states in his chapter, “Demography is working hand-in-hand with shifts in social and personal preferences”.

Cohort Flow and the Consequences of Population Ageing, An International Analysis and Review includes 9 chapters written by a distinguished collection of researchers such as Frank T. Denton, Byron Spencer, Ingrid A. Connidis, Jacques Légaré, Chris Phillipson, Leroy O. Stone, and Sherri Torjman. The foreword is written by George C. Myers. The publication also includes 46 tables and 52 charts that support the analyses.
